Episode description

How awesome do I need to be at coding before I get an entry level job or internship? 

Candidates are often under prepared. I'll tell you how to fix that.

Will degrees and code academies prepare me for my first interview? 

Not likely. Or at least, not likely without doing some extra that the class isn't going to make you do. I'll tell you what that is.

The headlines for this cast are:

Yes, you need to be able to code to get a coding job, even entry level or internship.

To prepare:

1. Write Every-day Code Every Day

2. Study Theory and Opinion 

3. Be prepared to Demonstrate Skill

4. Optionally Study Tricky Code
